83: How to Thrive Amidst Challenges

Episode notes

Episode Highlight: On this episode of the "Embracing Only" podcast, we have a spicy topic that is a little more vulnerable than what we typically share. We’re taking a second to back off the career talk and check in and ask how you are doing. In the spirit of vulnerability, we also share what we are wrestling with at the moment and how we’re navigating through these things. Key Discussion Points: 02:04 Self-Worth Check-In: High-achievers often tie their self-worth to their achievements. They also rarely stop to acknowledge all that they have accomplished. 05:16 Building Joy: Find the things that make you happy and intentionally build them into your day. 07:21 Cultivating Emotional Awareness: We are always holding space for others, sometimes we need to hold space for ourselves and identify what we want and need. 14:28 Psychological Flexibility: A way of being that gives you the ability to respond to what is happening to you in a more fluid way. 20:05 Feeling and Learning from Your Emotions: How can you open up to painful emotions rather than be overwhelmed by them? And once you allow yourself to feel these emotions, what can you learn from them?
